I’m kinda stuck, but motoring on with my two experimental flower paintings. Being stuck is nothing new. It happens every time I get beyond the fresh start of a new painting and continues until I’m suddenly almost finished and everything magically falls into place. The middle part always brings on doubts, confusion and sometimes (often) despair. It doesn’t matter that this is the process I go through every single time—I never believe I’ll be able to find solutions each and every time.

Here are the flower paintings as of today:

Closer, long ptg

and

Closer, square flowers

The top painting is larger than it looks reproduced—20″ x 60″. The square painting is 36″ x 36″

Also in progress—2-12″ x 12″ water paintings.

Water, rocks

 

Sq water
